Feel free to use the com.oreilly.servlet package in the development of any non-commercial project. For this use you are granted a non-exclusive, non-transferable limited license at no cost. (Yep, free.)

If you are interested in using the package to benefit a commercial project, you are granted the same license, provided that every person on the development team for that project owns a copy of the book Java Servlet Programming (O'Reilly).

2. You reproduce the above copyright notice, this list of conditions, and the following disclaimer in the documentation and/or other materials provided with the distribution.

To clarify, you may use the com.oreilly.servlet package to build new software and may distribute the package in object code form as part of this software. You may NOT distribute the package as part of a software development kit, other library, or development tool without consent of the copyright holder. Any modified form of the com.oreilly.servlet package is bound by these same restrictions. (I don't want multiple versions making the rounds.)
